Adoptions......

Well, today just about one adoption. When we were at the show a couple of weeks ago, and Saturday was the only beautiful day in three weeks, we had quite a few people come over to check out Justine and Kaskea. One really nice gentleman brought his two girls out to see about adopting another dog as a companion to their dog. They didn't bring their baby, but came to find out he was a little dog. And a boy. They really liked both of ours and we had a really great conversation. Had them fill out an app and see what would happen.
The next weekend they brought their dog for an introduction. They looked at two boys, Kaskea and Calypso, and really no chemistry and we felt both boys would be a lot of dog for the girls, as they are both big guys. Justine , however, had no problem. Walked right up and sat down next to him.....sweet girl that she is. Both the girls loved Justine, just needed to do a home check.
The next week I arranged to do the check and asked Dad about bringing Justine at the same time. We were going to do it during the week, but the girls wouldn't have been there so we decided Saturday. Then we agreed to surprise the girls on Saturday morning and get her there before they got up. I let him know my timing and brought her in then he called Mia and Morgan down for breakfast....I can't tell you how thrilled they were!!!! Then we had the home check.....the place was great, wish they were adopting me!!! The dogs were just great together and we had a good match!!!


Lovely Justine!!!!

Her fantastic new family!!!!
I'm very sure Justine is going to have a wonderful life.....have fun little girl!!!!
More adoptions and some un-Husky posts soon.....
Have a wonderful evening........

Rest in Peace......

Our baby Winston passed tonight. I guess , thankfully, it was very quick. Two deep breaths and he was gone......










I wanted to include all these beautiful pictures our friend Farid took of Winston just a month ago....
Rest in Peace sweet boy......

Good thoughts......

Our senior fella Mr. Winston is not doing so well right now. I was at our directors to take care of a few dogs on Monday, he wouldn't eat and basically just laid there. She took him to the vet and they said he has a UTI and bronchitis. I saw him this morning and he was the same.....I , of course , want the meds to kick in immediately.....but we shall see.
Please send some positive thoughts his way.....I'm hoping he starts feeling better soon.
Thanks.....

Texas Paw Fest......

This weekend we went to Texas Paw Fest. A good friend of mine was putting it on so we decided to join in. It was a medium size show......about 20 rescues, some vendors and the dock dogs. We actually had a prime spot and were able to watch the dock dogs all day from our booth!!!! Saturday started out super cold......it's been unusually cold here in March, usually we are getting pretty spring weather by now.....not this year. I will say at least it got to about 55 by the end of the day. We decided to take two dogs that have not been to shows before and see how they worked out. They get along with each other so we were sure they'd be fine together at the show. They were really great for a first time....very well behaved!!!
Kaskea is a woolly so we took him for a bath on Friday, He hasn't had one since we got him out of the kennel.....and he stunk so it was good to get him cleaned up!!!!
Looking better!!! Smelling better too!!!

So we took Kaskea and Justine and actually had a pretty good show. There were quite a few people so we were talking all day. Some pictures of the occasion........
Justine taking a rest!!!

I wish I had a video of the paw thing Justine was doing....

Kaskea and a new friend.

Getting a brush!!! 
Time for a well deserved rest......


Kloe came for a visit....I fell in love with that white dog in the background....deaf and blind.....

Sunday we were not as fortunate....started raining Saturday night and it's still raining Monday afternoon.....needless to say we packed and took off.....but the dock dogs were still jumping, they were getting wet anyway!!!


You can barely see...but one of the dogs is getting ready to jump.....
Sad we had to have the nasty weather...we actually got a few apps in from the show!!!
Have a great evening......
See you soon......
